Presbyterian College officials
move ahead with plans to make
I application for membership in
he Carolina Conference after re-
! -eiving official approval from
the college board of trustees.
Formal application will be
made within the next montlr for
consideration by conference rep
resentatives when they assemble
for their semi-annual meeting in
Salisbury. N. C., on May 23.
President Marc C. Weersing has
indicated that Presbyterian Col-
ege will send representatives to
this conference meeting.
Trustee endorsement came up
on recommendation of the ath
letic council. It also has the sup
port of the Walter Johnson Club,
PC alumni athletic organiatkra.
Presbyterian College has had
close athletic ties with various
members of the Carolinians Con
ference through the years. These
teams include: Newberry Col-
ege in South Carolina and Ap
palachian, Atlantic Christian,
Catawba, Elon Guilford, High
Point, Lenoir Rhyne, Pfeiffer and
Western Carolina in North Caro
lina. d
PC already operates under reg
ulations similar to those of the
conference and last year imposed
a gradual realignment of ath
letic grants to a total of 35 by
the fall of 1065. This is the cur
rent conference limit.
The Carol! nas Conference was
formed in 1961 as an expansion
of the North State Conference,
which had operated as an organi
zation of smaller North Carolina
college since 1030. The name
change came after some years
of intermittent negotiations
among these colleges and the
small colleges of South Carolina,
but only Newberry College of (his
state became a part of the 1061
agreement.
